Out of the Millions of Dresses to Wear for a Wedding, These are the 27 We Rate
Rixo, Reformation and Self-Portrait are always a go-to for dressy, yet wearable, dresses you can wear way beyond the wedding date. The likes of Simone Rocha and cult label Taller Marmo are reliable for the even fancier affairs. And when it comes to affordable styles, high street brands including & Other Stories, Reiss, Zara and Mango never fail to impress. With so many dresses out there, though, half the battle is looking for “the one”, because it’s not just the bride’s dress that’s important, is it? So, to save you time for the multiple upcoming wedding you most likely have in your diaries, here are the 27 dresses (remember that film?), that we believe are the best spring wedding guest styles.

Zoë Kravitz Wore Puddle Pants With the Flat Shoes We’re Downright Obsessed With
And just like that, 2022’s best dressed couple is back on the streets doing what they do best: looking casual and cool in coordinating outfits deserving of multiple spots on our overflowing Pinterest boards. This week, Zoë Kravitz was spotted hand in hand with her boyfriend, Channing Tatum, wearing just the kind of low-key ensemble she’s become known for. Specifically, she paired a slouchy turtleneck sweater with a duster coat and the puddle-pant trend that’s been making the rounds on the A-list. Making the look even more praise-worthy, she added a Saint Laurent bag and the Mary-Jane flats she can’t seem to quit. Worn for lunch and a stroll through London’s Mayfair neighborhood, Kravitz’s look combines two of our favor...

7 Minimalist Spring Outfits I’m Definitely Going to Copy
Every time spring comes along, I get so tempted by all the joyful prints, colours and ruffles on offer. In an alternative world, my wardrobe would be full of them. The problem is, I’m very much a minimalist dresser at heart— and although I love bright, bold looks on other people, over the decade I’ve worked in fashion, I’ve learnt that what makes me feel most confident and myself is a pared-back capsule full of classics that all work together effortlessly. As you’d expect, then, my wardrobe is full of pieces like button down shirts, blue jeans, relaxed tailoring, simple dresses, t-shirts and knits that I layer up or down depending on the season. By their very nature everything pretty much goes together, but it doesn’t stop me feeling a little uninspired at the beginning of each ...
From Zendaya to VB, Celebrity Makeup Artists Share the Tips Behind Their Makeup
Brows can really frame the face but can be easy to get wrong if you’re too heavy-handed. Celebrity makeup artist and founder of Westman Atelier, Gucci Westman (you name a celebrity, she’s most likely done their makeup). “For filling in eyebrows, it’s good to have a gentle hand with feather-like strokes. Emulate your hairs, and don’t draw lines,” says Gucci. “Wherever you have a gap, it is important to just apply, blend and erase with your brow spooly brush – go back and forth until you have the perfect result,” she adds. And in terms of colour matching your brow product to your brow, Gucci recommends going a tad darker than your hair colour. “It’s a bit of personal preference, but usually I like to say that you should choose a darker shade than the hair ...
I’m Introduced to 1000s of New Brands Every Month, But These Stand Out
I’m sure that at many jobs, an influx of approximately 500 emails per day is totally normal. I rarely feel confident enough to bulk-delete without regret because there are always endless messages I need to check in on in order to stay ahead of trends, launches and cool brands. I’m contacted by countless designers, brand founders, PR firms and marketing execs on a daily basis, and I try my best to support brands that show a point of difference, create beautiful products and have interesting stories. Not every label makes the cut, and the task of editing down what I deem worthy of your attention can be a brutal one. In this new monthly gallery, I’ll be highlighting the best independent brands. They aren’t all necessarily brand new, but they are small-scale enough that...

An Expert’s Guide to Finding a Fabulous Mother of the Bride Outfit
Being a fashion editor comes in handy more than you’d think. I’ve helped friends and family assemble outfits for job interviews, only to be offered the job afterwards. Coincidence? I think not. I’ve sourced sold-out items on resale sites for those desperately seeking them, and I’m always happy to debate more significant investments. Above all else, however, my decade-long experience working in fashion is most valued by brides-to-be and their mothers when it comes to finding not the wedding dress, but the mother of the bride dress. I’ve been a bridesmaid a handful of times and a guest more often than I can count, and I’m almost always drafted in to help with the search for the perfect mother of the bride outfit. After all, there’s a lot to consid...
